It's called a wedding ring, but surely it should be called a marriage ring - eviltoast

Like engagement rings denote the engagement… Maybe it’s just English being its usual mess

    I get that, but also, it’s always seemed like the purpose of the ring is to signify the state of being, so engagement ring to show the state of being engaged, wedding ring shows the state of being married, or wed, I guess it works both ways

    Not a strongly held view by any means 😆
